i posted a couple of my poems i havent shared here onto my instagram account. i dont even care if people find it cringey i like them. i am happy with who i am becoming. but i am still yearning to be liked. how do i not yearn.
Gurl, errbody yearns to be liked. It's a human thing. But overcoming that requires security in oneself. Pretty much, just spend time literally near-meditating, draining and waiting til your thoughts run off and then speak to yourself and tell yourself you don't need others. Others liking you won't help you like you
That's the type of self mind control ya need for dat :v But all in all, I like ur poetry tbh
I'd suggest focusing on people in real life liking you. Anonymous strangers? Wouldn't give it too much thought. That said, ANY time you create something and put it for public consumption you're never going to connect with everyone. Have to be ready for that or it's best to not put it out in the first place.
